In the heart of the historic center, all known sights, the beach, public transport, bars and restaurants are in short walking distance.
You’ll love it for the great custom made interior, Netflix & Spotify Premium, 250l water tank, strong air-conditioning, 2 wall & 1 roof fan, high ceilings, 24/7 security, quiet and safe neighborhood, very comfortable sofa and bed, fast Wifi.
Our place is perfect for couples, families and groups.

As already mentioned in the short summary, everything inside this apartment is custom built and handmade. We have put a lot of thought into the details and design. Since the both of us work as designers, we were quiet perfectionists about how our home should look like and put great effort into everything that went into the place. No matter if you are dining on the modern bar style table, relaxing on the huge couch, hammock, or wake up in the quiet and comfortable bed - you will feel that this is not just a Apartment to make money - this is a place where people live and enjoy life.
As far as location goes, please see the part further down about the Neighborhood. But in short, it is perfect. We looked at various Apartments before we choose this one. It is close to everything, no matter if you wanna go for a walk on the wall (1 block away), for a nice meal or a drink (1-2 blocks), sit in a relaxed park and admire the street artists (2 blocks), or go for a long night out of dancing and party (2-3 blocks) - everything is close enough to walk and safe, no matter what time of the day it is.
As we are working mostly online, wifi is a necessity for us. So we installed a custom solution, since the only router you get from the provider is crap. Our Setup gives you a 100%-80% signal no matter where you are in the Apartment. Network speed from the provider is rated at 5Mbps, in reality this comes down to (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) Kbps download and 100-300 Kbps upload. If those number don't mean anything to you: it is fast enough to watch Youtube and Netflix in Ultra HD, stream music, browse the web or anything else that a normal user does nowadays.

Living in The Old Town / Historical Center really is magic, no matter what time of the day you go for a walk here, the architecture, people and vibe will fascinate you! No matter what time of the day you leave the house, inside the walled city you will always feel safe - which can not to be said about any other place in Colombia.
As far as the immediate neighborhood of the apartment goes: the neighbors are locals, really relaxed, friendly and helpful people. As there are others renting their apartment to travelers in the house, you will not be the only "gringo" in the house ;-P
There are two very nice parks 2 block from the apartment, which are perfect to see some of the nicest and most creative bars and restaurants in Cartagena. To get in some Salsa or other party places you can find some nice clubs 4 blocks away. But party-central is around the square of the Clock Tower "Torre del reloj" - which is 3 blocks (5 minutes walking) away.
This actually is a good thing, because that means that your good night sleep will never be disturbed. We are just close enough to nightlife, but far enough not to be disturbed from it. In the apartment you will not hear any noise from the rumbling parties few minutes away. In general the neighbors and the house is very quiet and relaxed, so if you are tired of walking or dancing: just relax in the hammock and enjoy a break.

I found Dominic & Sasha's loft to be a cozy respite from the cacophony of Cartagena's walled city. The building has plenty of character and is located within walking distance of most the activity. Was able to check-in a little early which was super helpful. $3000COP lift from the airport.

Peshka2017-09-05T00:00:00Z

Amazing place in the heart of Cartegena! Very safe with a guard in front and also very nice place with everything you need including a washer and all toiletries. They left us a fresh jug of cold water and some delicious dark chocolate which was a nice personal touch. Definitely recommend! Very affordable and comfortable. We ended up staying an extra night and wish we stayed much longer!

This place is great! The style is both hip, fun and cozy. There's a good washing machine provided that worked great. The bathroom was new, large and comfortable. Our family of four loved sleeping in the same room-two high in the loft and two low on the hideaway mattress. The air conditioner worked well (Don't worry that Colombian window units function a little different than US ones. They are quieter and get the job done maybe better.) I can't say enough good about Dominic and his going over and above to make sure all went well for us. He communicated quickly and helpfully before and during our stay. Finally, the location of Doshi's Loft could not be better. You step out of the serenity of the loft into the center of the walked city, where all of the main sites of the city are within an easy five to ten minute walk. The building that the loft is in is also a fun peek into the world of real Cartagenans. This was definitely one of the, if not the, favorite AirBnBs our family has stayed in.

Scott2017-06-13T00:00:00Z

Had a great little stay at Dominic's place. It is cleverly styled, well equipped and in a perfect location. Highly recommend!

Hamish2017-07-04T00:00:00Z

We loved this space so much and are already dreaming of coming back again someday! There were just so many special touches and the place was incredibly cozy (especially the hammock), we even found it hard to go out and explore at times. The building itself had so much character and it was really great that everything was just a very short walk outside the door. I think it is obvious, but we highly recommend staying here!:)

Tara2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Dominic's place is a true gem in the walled city in Cartagena. The old building adds a sense of what the city was like before all the hotels and restaurants started popping up. It was great for us because we stayed only a few nights, but in my opinion Cartagena is way too hot and a pool is a necessity (this is personal opinion though). This loft is beautiful and a perfect getaway. Dom and Sasha are amazing hosts and respond quickly and super friendly to any question you may have. Honestly my partner and I loved the place and would recommend it in a heartbeat if you're ok with the lack of pool.

Mariana2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

If you're looking to site-see the old Cartagena you cannot pass up this apartment. It's perfectly located and had everything you need for a long or short stay. Dominic truly cares about his guests...5 stars all around.

Jeff2017-01-31T00:00:00Z

The hosts were so nice and helpful and quick to respond. We were there for about 12 hours while we were en route to Taganga. They helped reserve the bus for us and everything! Only complaint was it was really hot and there wasn't AC!

Alaina2017-04-11T00:00:00Z

Great setting with very friendly hosts and good overall value. As others have said in their reviews, the room is simple with shared bathroom and not much privacy as there is only a small curtain over the wall with holes in it. Only issue for us was that the fans did not offer much relief from the Caribbean heat and humidity.

Tara2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

For an authentic experience in the heart of the old city of Cartagena, is the ideal site. We share the lives of a young couple animated by pus sincere altruistic feelings. Yoga, Vegan breakfast, simplicity, all the ingredients to take us to the true values of sharing. Single room, shared bathroom but clean, large room and balcony on one of the most beautiful streets of Cartagena. ask what more?.

Fabrice2016-09-01T00:00:00Z

Spacious room in the walled city, very good location

Maria2017-02-08T00:00:00Z

A good choice if you want to be in the centre and at the same time in a quiet street. The location is great, close to everything and only 10m from the airport. The hosts are very nice and helpful with anything you might need. You'll be sharing the house with a local couple that will make you feel at home. There are other guests and the toilet is shared but clean. The house is simple but very spacious And they offer a vegan breakfast. Thank you so much for making me feel at home and enjoy my stay in Cartagena!

Vera2016-11-14T00:00:00Z

Bisba is an excelent host. We loved talking to him. We had a great time!

Cozy apartastudio on the 3rd floor of a hostal. It wasn't clear from the ad that the room was in a hostal but it ended up being fine. Its was actually quite private. A little noisy from the street below but you can't beat the location and private balcony. Great space for the price. Nice/helpful staff. Would definitely stay again.

Paul2017-07-27T00:00:00Z

Nice appartement in a Hostal, location is perfect. Close to everything. The appartement had a nice balcony also to hang around.

Kevin2017-06-23T00:00:00Z

The place is beautiful, super well located, but the best is the attention, they are wonderful people, especially Nore !!! Thanks, we had a great time.

Cathe2017-06-27T00:00:00Z

The place is warm and well located. It is only necessary to define in advance the precise location as the taxi driver who took us was unfriendly

Karen2017-06-29T00:00:00Z

The apartment is well located close to everything in the historic center. Ja And a supermarket very close. In the evenings it is very quiet to sleep, the staff siemore is tube attentive to all the needs and queries

Leandro2017-06-16T00:00:00Z

I highly recommend this nice and secure place when you visit Cartagena. Thank you Juan and staff

Mario2017-09-03T00:00:00Z

Comfortable space for a family. A small kitchen where we could prepare fast meals, is the main kitchen for more elaborate meals. The attention of Juan and his wife, and all the staff at the hostel was excellent.

Bê2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

My boyfriend and I loved staying in this cute studio in Cartagena. It's in a super central location within the old part of the city and a 5 minute walk to Getsemani. We loved the kitchenette and the balcony-- we made breakfast and coffee every morning and hung out on the balcony at night. The staff that works there was also very friendly and helpful. Very nice stay!

Nice private room with toilet ensuite located in one of the quirkiest streets of Getsemani that is known as the bohemian neighborhood of Cartagena where locals outnumber tourists and “real life takes place in art-filled streets”.
Back in the day, Getsemani was the neighborhood of the slaves and working classes, nowadays is the residential neighborhood of the walled city.
The house is modest and shared with other guests, please let us know if you have doubts before booking.

Today, Getsemani is one of the up and coming districts of Cartagena and it’s experiencing its own touristic boom. There are many hostels, bars and restaurants in this area; making it very popular with the younger crowds. If you’re looking for a place to salsa the night away, this is the place to go!

Dharma was very friendly and responded quickly to my booking and related questions. Here's my breakdown: Good: great location right in Getsemaní but on a quiet street, AC worked perfectly, which is a must in the Cartagena heat. Not-so-good: I was expecting a standard house situation, but this listing is one hallway with several private bedrooms on one side. There is no common space aside from the kitchen. The room was smaller than I expected based on the pictures, and there is no window. I shared the bathroom with some bugs, and the shower drain was quite clogged. Bottom line: in my opinion overpriced for what is offered, but if you're in a booking crunch, a quiet, cool spot to sleep.

Cait2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

I loved my stay at Dharma's. The room was small but plenty for one person and the air conditioning was amazing after a hot day. The house also felt very secure and I felt comfortable leaving my belongings there. The house has multiple bedrooms but I didn't hear much of the other guests. Dharma took me to breakfast on my first morning and gave me thorough recommendations and advice for how to stay safe as a solo female traveler. The area is very safe. I went out every night by myself and felt comfortable. I would go back in a second.

Alysha2017-07-28T00:00:00Z

Dharma was a great host. She left a detailed map with recommendations which were fantastic. The place is near a great square that always seemed to have something going on. Walking in the area and to the old city felt safe and was a short walk. The room is small but we didn't spend any time in it other than to sleep. The bathroom is clean. AC works amazingly and the room is sealed enough to keep out mosquitos.

Colin2017-07-17T00:00:00Z

The location of this place is amazing, just nearby a square where everything from live music to Zumba dance happened in the evening. Nice and safe neighbourhood. Onlý downside is the room being a bit small for two persons

Rasmus2017-07-11T00:00:00Z

If you are searching for a great room in budget, this is the place! The neighborhood is amazing, the square by the apt was our favorite spot in Cartagena. The room was very accurate, an easy place to sleep steps away from an incredible location. The room itself is good, a bit small, but clean and easy and well worth the price. You can't beat the location - perfect for those who want to eat street food and be in lovely areas. We had a very small issue with the room, but as soon as we raised it Anya was amazing, it got fixed extremely quickly and she was extremely communicative. We 100% recommend

Helen2017-08-14T00:00:00Z

Perfect again. Little mishap with the booking but got a larger and nicer apartment instead.

Martin2017-08-17T00:00:00Z

Dharma was incredibly friendly and helpful. She went above and beyond and made our stay as enjoyable as possible and was always available. The room was exactly as advertised, and is located in an awesome neighborhood. I can easily recommend Dharma's place to fellow travelers!

Wayne2017-08-24T00:00:00Z

Great area, walking distance to everything in Cartagena, yet quiet enough to sleep at night. Place had everything I needed: AC, wifi, shower (not warm water), and a bed to sleep! Ran into a few issues with the AC and shower, but Tino and Angie stayed on top of it and fixed the issues quickly. Host was very helpful with mapping out where to go and helping with taxis, etc. without a doubt I'll be back here next time I'm in Cartagena!

Place is clean, has good air condition and has also a good balcony where you can see all the action on the street below. The staff are very welcoming, have nice smiles and are always ready to assist. Gilberto was very helpful with all the things I needed and despite a small issue with my reservation, he found a fast solution and I was more than satisfied. Overall, I strongly recommend this place!

Precious apartment of 100 meters, in the second plant, between monuments, plazas and restaurants.
The apartment is very cozy, with cool and relaxed atmosphere, in the historic center of lovely Cartagena

The best thing of the flat's location is: It's really near by walk to those nightlifes spots where all happens, but it's far enough to have a peaceful night where you sleep till whatever time you want and wake up renewed.
At the end of the day if you want to relax you can go to an amazing viewpoint by 15 min walk called Café del Mar where you see old city city and everyone is there relaxing watching the sun going down.

Located in the traditional neighborhood Getsemaní, around the corner from the 24 hours full of life Plaza de la Trinidad, streets walls full of art with nice graffitis, great cafés and bars.

This is a nice room in an apartment with a nice bathroom. You'll have to share the living room, TV and kitchen with other people. The blinds are not perfect so you can be seen in your room. No iron.

Alex2017-07-05T00:00:00Z

Daniela and Oscar were friendly and super helpful. Nice spot that's close to the old city and all the nightlife.

Andrew2017-04-28T00:00:00Z

A comfortable place in a central neighborhood, colorful and full of life. Daniela and her boyfriend were very kind and helpful. Definitely highly recommended!

Angela2017-03-05T00:00:00Z

Very nice location for those who are interested in having a stay walking distance from Getsemani and the old city . The place is near nice restaurants and the Getsemani neighborhood with the party plaza which is fun and interesting. The bed was very comfortable and the shower is great ! Oscar the host is very nice and helpful .

Olga Lucia 2017-07-29T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay with Daniela and Oscar. We were very welcomed by Oscar, very attentive, gave us valuable advice on where to eat, what to visit, how to move etc. We also contacted by telephone Daniela who responded very quickly. 2 Our hosts were extremely accommodating with respect to the entry and exit times, which allowed us to take maximum advantage of two short days we had in Cartagena. The apartment is fully compliant to the photos. We had a private bathroom which was contiguous to our room. The latter is really pretty and nice! The apartment itself is located in the lively neighborhood of getsemani. Thus, attractions and nightlife are right next door. We all visited on foot. Overall, accommodation and very friendly hosts, we recommend without hesitation.

Christelle2017-02-28T00:00:00Z

Delicious, the bed is comfortable suuuper and privacy is spectacular. Thanks to both of you!

Alejandra2017-03-31T00:00:00Z

Worth every penny! Highly recommend!

Rory2017-05-14T00:00:00Z

This was a lovely place to stay for my only night in Cartagena. It was walking distance to everywhere that I wanted to go, but secluded enough that the noise and nightlife didn't interrupt my sleep. I would definitely stay here again!

The apartment is very cute and in a super location in an old building, that looks like museum. Unfortunately during our stay there was a plumbing problem in the whole building and no running water. Katrina offered us alternative bathroom, but still we decided to go elsewhere for last few days, as we enjoy cooking ourselves in the kitchen which was difficult without water. Overall, it is a nice and clean little place to stay in the best area in Cartagena and Katrina is extremely welcoming and helpful host!

Anneli2016-12-08T00:00:00Z

Katrina is a FABULOUS and generous host. She was so quick to answer every question, meet me earlier than planned, and accommodate our needs for items like towels and toiletries. However, the apartment is old and in need of some major updates. There's no air conditioning here, which of course may not be an issue for some. Additionally, if you're not planning to spend much time in your room, then the apartment is largely fine. But my travel partner and I were looking to spend more time relaxing and enjoying both the city and our rental space so this Airbnb wasn't the best choice for us. All that said, I truly don't have a single negative thing to say about Katrina as a host. She was amazing, kind, and funny.

Anne2017-06-19T00:00:00Z

Easy decorated room, i did not know that we have no window, so if you choose the rooma ask her for the ones with window :) Everything else was fine! Very Cheap, clean, but open walls in the top so you can here the ones tha sleep in the next rooms and it s not very private. But there is a kitchen that you can use and good wlan. Very central and Cristina was ver nice friendly and fast communication was working well! We could also check out later!! So i can recommend it but take the room with the window :)

Phaedra2017-02-27T00:00:00Z

Excellent location and great price for the historical center. It is probably not possible to find a better price for a private room in this area. Katrina is a friendly, accommodating host who made check-in smooth. The only thing we did not like was the size of the apartment and room- it was much smaller than expected.

Lauren2017-04-30T00:00:00Z

Our stay in Cartagena was excellent. The facilities were clean, very centrally located within the old city, and had basic amenities (stove, sink, fridge, fan). From our Airbnb, we could walk anywhere within the old city. Katrina was an amazing hostess! She was very attentive to our needs and invested in our stay. She took us on a walking tour around the old city and was very proud and eager to share her beautiful city with us. We highly recommend staying at this Airbnb!

Adam2017-01-26T00:00:00Z

I cannot recommend this place enough. It's central, so reasonably priced and KAtrina is the perfect host; kind, helpful and wonderful. The apartment is very typically Colombian, in a beautiful building. STAY HERE!

Hannah2017-03-18T00:00:00Z

Katrina was a wonderful host. Her Spanish was easy to understand even though we are not fluent. She even gave us a tour of the city and bought us a beer. The place is great for exploring the city but we had a hard time locating it since it is above a buisiness. The rooms and bathrooms are in a separate area and are padlocked. This was an inconvience at night but a new bathroom was being installed next to the rooms.

Will 2016-12-12T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Katrina's was great! She is a wonderful hostess, always willing to help and quick to respond to any message we sent. She also was very giving with info about being aware of pick pocketers. Traveling on a budget this is a great place to stay, as the location is phenomenal. Right in the walled city! We however are not accustomed to the intense humidity and heat of Cartagena, so we couldn't sleep without AC. All in all, I would recommend to a friend who can handle sleeping in the heat! Thanks Katrina!

WARNING FOR TRAVELERS:
I like to be honest with all travelers and try to detail all aspects of the housing so that they know where they arrive and feel more comfortable.
The property is located in one of the oldest buildings in modern architecture thus has a somewhat neglected appearance (That does not affect the apartment at all, is only the facade and entrance), THE ENTRANCE TO PLACE IS NO Nice and from there you must climb three flights of stairs to the apartment.
-The apartment (My house) is simple and no frills (not a hotel).
-the atmosphere is familiar where you can share with people who live there.
-The room is not suitable for discerning travelers.
-The room is basic and not luxurious finishes.
No air conditioned.
-the room has a private bathroom.
-The two bathrooms available in the apartment are shared with all members who live there.
-The shower has no hot water (only the weather).

The room is located in the center but outside the historical part, but still are one block from the iconic Clock Tower, the place where you begin to tell the story.
The accommodation is on a path of vehicular outside the historic center, so the car is constant flow. It is also a technological trade area (A variety of dedicated sales and raparacion cell sites).
There is a parking lot in the lower area of the building (on the street and not private) and two banks and one right next to another front. There is also a taxi station right around the corner.

We had a very nice stay at luis place. He welcomed us and we felt always safe. Also luis girlfriend and the flatmate were nice persons! We recommend luis as a host warmly.

Thomas2016-04-05T00:00:00Z

The place is very basic, it's almost too basic! I can live without the TV! I would much rather have a very small table that could be used as a little desk with an an extra chair. Many of us are traveling with a small laptop or tablet to manage day to day business from abroad and get things done on the road. The host is not a traveler and doesn't understand these needs!

Boris Werner2016-09-09T00:00:00Z

Luis and Hanni are fabulous hosts! The appartment is very conveniently located between the old town and Getsemani, both just a few steps away. The room is spacious and has two fans which is a must in Cartagena's heat. The kitchen is well equipped, a supermarket is just around the corner. We can recommend staying at Luis', we would definitely stay here again if we come back to Cartagena.

Melanie & André2017-02-19T00:00:00Z

You can spend a lot of money to stay at a hostel within the walls of Old Cartagena, or you could stay with Luis instead. The neighborhood seemed slightly sketchy at first, but really, only picky travelers will have any problems with this apartment. The room is large with a fan to beat the Caribbean heat, and Luis was an extremely gracious host. The apartment is VERY close to the old part of town, which is the best and most interesting place to visit in the city. For pickier travelers, you can always stay with tourists in hostels or the fancy Hilton, but if you want a gracious host, great location, amazing price and a nice place to sleep, this is a perfect choice. Thank you Luis!

Kaela2016-03-25T00:00:00Z

Luis was an excellent host. He came out to meet us just in case we couldn't find the apartment. He and his friends made us feel so welcome. He offered excellent recommendations and showed us a fun night in Cartagena. I would definitely stay with Luis again. We felt very comfortable in the house and everything was super clean, with all the amenities. The location is great, right next to El Centro. And a great seafood cocktail place on the corner. Muchas gracias por todo!!!

Katie2016-07-27T00:00:00Z

Alvaro2017-03-29T00:00:00Z

I stayed at Carlos place (Jenny was the key keeper and lives in the house too, you're unlikely to see much of Carlos) for a month. I had a great time and it was good value considering the great location and the beautiful house. You really live in one of the old colonial houses and have all the tourist attraction right around the corner. Across the street there is a permanent free art exhibition, be sure to check it out (also recommend it for good coffee). However, the living room is not as big as it seems on the picture, a family (mom, dad, daughter, dog) lives behind Japanese walls in the kitchen. We had a great time bonding with their daughter and the dog, but this decreases the space that we expected to have. They will not be in your way and have no problem if you want to stay in the living room for however long you like. You share the bathroom with Jenny, don't expect it to be spic-and-span and realize that it is a different bathroom than in the kitchen. The first two weeks the kitchen did not have a fan, but after some nagging that was resolved so hopefully you'll be able to enjoy your home cooked meal without the intense heat. There's no oven, but the rest of the kitchen is great. We drank water from the tap, but did not check if it was filtered. Didn't get sick ;) The laundry machine is in Jenny's room, but she is very flexible and a really nice person to share the appartment with, always happy to cheer you up with a joke. Enjoy your stay!

Julia2017-04-30T00:00:00Z

Great location to explore the historical center and walled city. simple place, nothing fancy but practical.

Amaury2017-05-15T00:00:00Z

So against the location can not be faulted. The apartment in the colonial style would be really nice but the room was dirty. Under the bed still an empty chip bag was just as other waste. The bathroom was also not the cleanest (tufts of hair in the drain, no toilet paper .....) and in the transition to rubble amassed. Otherwise everything worked in communication, ect key collection.

Giordana2017-05-11T00:00:00Z

The place is very central and very nice, it is old and very before, quiet area, close to the beach, the spacious room and in fact could not see Carlos but was always in communication. I recommend to go and have a quiet and comfortable place, especially for couples

We have all services light, water, gas, internet, television.

It is one of the oldest neighborhoods of the city, a tourist area, which gives our guests, the greatest security, is a neighborhood that has many areas to visit and learn from Cartagena

Great location and beautiful apartment. It does get a little warm but the fans help. Short walk to many attractions and close to the colonial wall. Beautiful balcony view. Store downstairs is very convenient. Vendors selling random produce (cheese, avocados, fruit, ect) walk the street in the morning, if you toss town the basket (in the apartment) you can complete the exchange without leaving the balcony. Fully loaded kitchen and nice dining area. Very secure and private entrance. Highly recommended.

The apartment was very well located, close to many restaurants, public transportation and the water. The lock on the main gate was hard to open and gabriel took the time to make sure it was fixed. They also helped us with our transportation to Barranquilla. Cartagena is a very humid city but as long as you keep the fans going it shouldn't be a problem. Would recommend staying here.

This home is as centrally located as could be within the historic area of Cartagena. The home has a well-equipped kitchen, and is a lovely place to lounge in the northern coast's heat. The space is very open with a balcony ideal for people watching. We comfortably slept four. 10/10 recommend.

Lauren2017-05-13T00:00:00Z

Excellent! Would recommend to anyone look to stay in the old city!

Jeff2017-07-21T00:00:00Z

Gabriel is very nice and is there for everything you need. The location is perfect. Just a bit noisy and the apartment gets quite hot on night time

Tommaso2017-08-15T00:00:00Z

My brother and I stayed here. You will be in contact with Gabriel, the son, who was currently not staying in Cartagena (or unavailable). His mother was the one who greeted us. She only spoke Spanish and we don't speak well at all so that part was a little confusing on some things but Gabriel was quick to message us and clarify any misunderstanding. As for the apartment, it is very nice. Could easily fit 4-5 people. Lots of space and really Central to places but still secluded enough to not be very noisy. Highly recommend if you are looking to stay for just a night or some time in Cartagena.

Carson2017-08-02T00:00:00Z

The apartment has an unbeatable location! Gabriel is an excellent host.

Panoramic, gifted, close to historical sites walled city, on the fourth floor without elevator with two bedrooms with bathrooms, dining room, double bed, and twin, additional sofa bed in one of the most beautiful streets of the city. romantic atmosphere.

Helder The apartment is located in the best position of the walled city one could wish. It is cozy and has a beautiful view. Well ventilated with good air conditioning. Mercedes was available and collaborator. We were 5 people and we are very happy and comfortable. We would go back without thinking twice.

Claudia2015-08-22T00:00:00Z

Helder was great! Very prompt about responding, arrangements to pick up keys were easy, the space was clean and BEAUTIFUL! Highly recommend! Centrally located in the middle of everything you will need.

Ryan2016-03-06T00:00:00Z

The apartment of Herder is very nice, in excellent location, very central and with impressive views over the city. The air conditioning is working properly, which is very important in Cartagena. The balcony in the 1 level is very good during the day to escape the sun sleeping in hammocks, the terrace in the 2 level is not usable during the day except to dry the laundry but in the evening is a very welcome place of cooling. The bedroom in the 1st level is nice, furnished with a double bed for very enamored couple. The 2nd bedroom is basic furnished with 2 single beds. It is particularly convenient both dormitories own bathrooms. The Kitchen facilities are unsatisfactory if you want to cook but cooking is unnecessary in this city, gastronomic selection is big, we missed in this kitchen Wine glasses and corkscrew, also the cleanliness was not taken seriously before our arrival. Very important to consider are the stairs that must be overcome to reach the apartment and enjoy the view, no elevator. the communication with Helder was faultless and solution of problems as well. Highly recommended.

Wilfredo2016-05-01T00:00:00Z

The flat is very well located, into the walled city and have a wonderful rooftop. However i do not recommand this flat for 5 persons. The fifth bed is located in the living room, the sofa is hardly a bed (very unconfortable), and the only way to use a bathroom for that fith person is to go throught the other rooms (no bathroom in public spaces). Helder is very helpful and easy to reach

RAPHAEL2015-08-16T00:00:00Z

Helder's place was great! There are two outdoor terraces, one on the roof with s nice view of the sea and the city, one with hammocks. This sleeps four people comfortably. AC worked very well. The kitchen is small but usable. Mercedes is wonderful and warm. It felt very safe and on a nice quiet street, but close to all of the action. A perfect, romantic place to stay in Cartagena.

Julia2015-09-24T00:00:00Z

Helder's house is wonderful :) It was a very nice stay in Cartagenas and the apartment helped a lot. Super central location, very comfortable and has a balcony and a terrace 100% worth it. Return without hesitation!

Mauricio2017-01-20T00:00:00Z

We absolutely loved our stay in Helder's apartment. The place was exactly as pictured, and its location in the old city was unbeatable! Helder was very helpful and accomodating for us, and communications with him were quick and easy. Our favorite feature of the apartment was the expansive rooftop terrace, which encouraged us to get up early for sunrise and get home for stunning sunset views. We would definitely recommend a stay here, and we hope to visit again some day!

Kristen2015-12-02T00:00:00Z

Simple, spacious rooms in the heart of the old Cartagena, high up to catch the breeze and enjoy the view of the sea and surroundings. We liked a lot.

Sandy2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

Juli was very sweet, warm, and helpful. She communicated very well and helped us with a ton of suggestions on where we could go for everything. Her location was good (just a 15 minute walk to Old Town). Her place is pretty clean, it was just a little dusty in some parts of the room. We reserved a room with wifi and shared bathroom. Once we got there, she gave us the option to upgrade to the room she had with a private bathroom for no extra costs, however the wifi didn't work in that room (the signal was too far). The kitchen was a little sparse on cooking/eating utensils but she gave us plenty of space in the fridge to put our food.

Steven2017-03-31T00:00:00Z

Nice location, right at the plaza de Trinidad. The apartment was quiet, clean and empty. The only downside was the cats living there. Nobody was taking care of them, they left a mess around the house, and were quite unfriendly.

Leon2017-08-29T00:00:00Z

Really nice place in a nice area. Juli was there to help me and anwer my questions. Room was as in the description.

Maurits2017-07-10T00:00:00Z

We stayed 4 nights in the house of Juli. The first surprise was that the only window of our room was to the Yoga room where they held yoga classes and women circles. So we didn't have so much privacy, in addition my boyfriend felt quite uncomfortable in the room next to the women circle where women cried during some kind of group therapy session. So he didn't want to leave the room to pass through the circle to get out to the street neither stay there. Would have been nice to know that at least. We know that Juli had quite a lot to do that weekend for the festival but still, nothing in the description talks about that. Also it was quite muggy air in the room and we had to turn on a lot the fans to get some kind of fresh air. On the other hand, the location was very nice and the flat quite clean. Also the two women were very nice and helpful. But for these circumstances, the price was too high in our opinion.

Sarah2017-04-03T00:00:00Z

Juli is a beautiful and helpful person. The house is in a very good location, very close to plaza Trinidad in a quiet street and short distance from the historic centre. I should mention the hallway got flooded when it was raining a lot, but I recomend this place.

Jose2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Great location. Juli was great and offered us great advice about bars and restaurants in the are. Good value for money. Would stay again!

Eoin2017-03-25T00:00:00Z

The room is simple and cozy. The room we were in gets hot at night but it helps to keep the window open and both fans on. The location was awesome. Our host was very accommodating and allowed us to check in early. There are yoga classes sometimes in the living room but it wasn't a problem for us because we expected it since the name of the place is Vive yoga. I really enjoyed the layout of the space it made us feel a sense of authentic Cartegenian living.

Private room in Getsemani, Old City! Very near to the main plaza in a colonial house which I'm restoring, ideal for 2 guests (3rd optional). With kitchen and private bathroom and the whole house to enjoy art local culture.

The private area consist of two rooms which are very spacious and luminous with a window to the street, has a private bathroom. Sometimes can be warm but there are fans.
The rooms are confortable, with new mattresses and nice art style furniture, I still want to make them better. Don't expect a 5 star hotel. This is a nice and different place for people who are interest in art and architecture.

Getsemani is a very cool neighborhood, a lot of local people and lots of tourists and backpackers. The nicest thing of it is that you can see the essence of the antique Cartagena, and have the commodity of restaurants, shops, bars, local stores etc.

A place full of character with an ideal location. A real local feel in contrast to the more touristy spots 10 minutes walk away. Ask to see the old (huge) escape tunnel in the courtyard. The local square is amazingly full of life the whole day. Little boys playing football in the afternoon and food, music and dance at night.

Stina2016-10-17T00:00:00Z

Samuel was very accommodating. Even though he was not present at the residence during my trip, he was available by phone in case I needed anything. His place is fantastic - very artistic and unique! It was above and beyond my expectations. The neighborhood of Getsemani is somewhere I highly recommend checking out.

Jeff2016-08-27T00:00:00Z

Great beautiful space near Plaza de la Trinidad. It was clean and had a great laid back vibe that's perfect for anyone not looking for a boring, stuffy hotel.

Maira2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

I really enjoyed my stay at Sam's casa. Everyone was super friendly and the place itself was very unique with tons of character. It's in a great location for staying in the old city and a fantastic value all around. I'd for sure stay here again next time I'm in Cartagena.

Jonathan2017-03-27T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay at Samuel's place. The house is chill and relaxing at the heart of Getsemaní :)

Miguel2017-08-14T00:00:00Z

This flat is in a great spot in Getsemani. I actually preferred this area more so than the walled city. The flat itself is really cool, very artsy. The common areas are open air which made it really cool. Estefania was so sweet and helpful. Indoors it gets extremely hot, but there were large fans available. I would definitely stay here again.

Jennifer2017-04-29T00:00:00Z

Samuel offers a nice place in a great location. The rooms are rather simple but still feel homey. Samuel's mother, who is also super friendly and welcoming, is currently renovating the whole place including its nice backyard with some volunteers and I would love to come back when it's done to see the result. The location of the rooms is just perfect. Close to Plaza de la Santísima Trinidad, where a lot of locals and tourists hang out at night to have a beer and surrounded by many cool restaurants and cafés. At the same time it lies in a rather quiet street so that you shouldn't have any trouble sleeping at night even though the window faces the street. To sum it up: Don't expect too much in terms of interior/luxury, it is a really simple accommodation, but offers everything you need (good bed with clean sheets and towels) in a laid back environment and great location.

Alex2016-07-29T00:00:00Z

the house is located in the heart of the city so everything is within easy reach. Samuel was very kind and responsive. during my stay his mum was in Cartagena. she helped me arranging many things, including a .... dental appointment. lovely people. i would recommend this place to anyone. a great choice
